Abstract
BLANCO, Jorge Polo. Isaiah Berlin, Friedrich Hayek and Milton Friedman walking around misery village. The boundaries of the liberal notion of freedom. Tabula Rasa [online]. 2018, n.29, pp.183-201. ISSN 1794-2489. https://doi.org/10.25058/20112742.n29.09.
In this work we will aim to explain the essential components of freedom understood as (material) non-domination, provided this is not a notion used by the republican tradition. Also, we will show this notion does not intend to be an antithetical, but rather a broader one and more substantial than the liberal notion of freedom, which may be defined as a simple lack of intervention. Grounded on a more limited dimension (as it is only negative), we will consider, controversially that freedom in the liberal sense could only account for events happening in a misery village, to take a paradigmatic example of social exclusion and poverty.
Keywords : liberal freedom; negative freedom; republican freedom; positive freedom; material freedom.
